Answer:

The correct answer is - kidney.

Explanation:

Osmoregulation is the process that bilogical system perform for the maintain osmotic balance in the blood plasma. There is a regular intake of electrolytes, water in the biological system from various proces.

The kidneys assists in the exported excessive electrolytes and water which is excreted to help in the maiantaining blood plasma on istonic level and prevent i from hypertonic or hypotonic condition that could lead to explosde of the cells. It return the amount of water from the transported amount of electrolyte and water so it can maintain the osmotic pressure in the cell.

In which Colorado Rockies scenario was there more erosion? Why was there more erosion in the scenario?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

There was more erosion in the Colorado Rockies scenario where there was steady rain compared to the scenario in the same area where there was only a drizzle. There is more erosion because the steady rain increased the volume of the river more than the drizzle did. Because there was more water added to the river, the river flowed faster. The faster a river flows, the more sediments it transports or erodes.

You are required to make 10mL of a 0.5M solution of HCl. Your stock solution of HCl is 90M. Using distilled water (dH2O) as a so
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

0.0556 mL of 90 M HCl would be taken and 9.944 mL distilled water added to make 0.5 M, 10 mL HCl solution.

Explanation:

From the dilution equation:

<em>Initial molarity (m1) x initial volume (v1) = final molarity (m2) x final volume (v2).</em>

In this case, m1 = 90 M, v1 = ?, m2 = 0.5 M, and v2 = 10 mL

v1 = m2 x v2/ m1 = 0.5 x 0.01/90 = 0.0000556 L

v1 = 0.0556 mL

This means that the initial volume of 90 M HCl to be taken is 0.0556 mL. Since the final volume to be prepared is 10 mL,

 10 - 0.0556 = 9.944 mL

<em>Hence, 0.0556 mL of 90 M HCl would be taken and 9.944 mL distilled water added to make 0.5 M, 10 mL HCl solution.</em>

Margaret [11]

Answer:

The gene frequency for the albino allele is 16%.

Explanation:

Given that in a population with 100 rabbits there are 16 that are albino, with two recessive genes for albinism, to determine, in this population, what is the gene frequency for the albino allele, the following calculation must be performed:

16/100 = X

0.16 = X

1 = 100

0.16 = X

0.16 x 100 = X

16 = X

Therefore, the gene frequency for the albino allele is 16%.
